Simultaneous detoxification and decolorization of molasses spent wash by the immobilized white-rot fungus Flavodon flavus isolated from a marine habitat (2004, background): “It has further been shown to decolorize bleach plant effluent of paper mill (17).”
Microbial decolorization and degradation of synthetic dyes: a review (2013, background): “Funalia trogii ATCC 200800 was found to be able to produce the laccase or MnP to mineralize synthetic dyes (Raghukumar et al. 1996).”
Treatment of Colored Effluents with Lignin-Degrading Enzymes: An Emerging Role of Marine-Derived Fungi (2008, background): “(strain NIOCC #321) and one facultative marine fungus Sordaria finicola (NIOCC #298) mineralized about 9–10% of the U-ring 14C-labeled lignin to (14)CO2 within 21 days (Raghukumar et al. 1996).”
Use of Filamentous Fungi for Wastewater Treatment and Production of High Value Fungal Byproducts: A Review (2010, background): “…possibly due to the production of the lignin-modifying enzymes laccase, manganese peroxidase (MnP), and lignin peroxidase (LiP) that mineralize lignin or dyes (Chander and Arora, 2007; Harazono & Nakamura, 2005; Michel et al., 1991; Mohorcic et al., 2006; Raghukumar, 2000; Raghukumar et al., 1996).”
